💨 Abstract

Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema was found guilty of violating the Firearms Control Act for firing gunshots at a 2018 rally. Activist Hendrick Makaneta emphasized that the verdict underscores the importance of accountability and the rule of law, especially for young people. Malema's supporters criticized the verdict, alleging political motives, while the Democratic Alliance (DA) welcomed it, citing Malema's alleged promotion of chaos and violence.
